it's dyeing season, no doubt. an ancient batch of madder bought on my first! trip to japan. now hot dyeing with whatever pigment was left from solar dyeing. there's a lot left and i'm processing it with heat and patience, watching over the pot,raising and lowering the heat so it doesn't boil and turn brown.
so far this has been the best akane results ive gotten.
paid off. lovely shades intense color. will be altering some towards the red with an alkaline modifier.
more to come
